Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Although art. 3992 precludes appellate review on the merits in a forcible detainer suit, the statute does not prevent this court from determining whether the county court had jurisdiction of the cause.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“We are aware that there are cases holding to the contrary however, the sense of Art. 3992 seems to contemplate a hearing on the merits in the county court with respect to possession before that court's judgment becomes nonappealable. This is so in spite of the fact that a judgment of dismissal has been held to be a final judgment. Witty v. Rose, 148 S.W.2d 962 (Tex. Civ.App.1941, writ dism'd). To hold to the contrary would deny the appellant his day in court where a jurisdictional error of the county court is apparent from the face of the record.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“The judgment of the county court finally disposing of the cause shall be conclusive of the litigation, and no further appeal shall be allowed, except where the judgment shall be for damages in an amount exceeding one hundred dollars.”
